Here is a tentative summary of the exchange about Haiti above, my side in italics:
- People spend more on themselves than they give to others.
- No disagreement.
- Charity won't reach everyone because people like Rush Limbaugh won't support the out-group.
- Here is evidence that people gave substantial charity to the out-group.
- That doesn't count because the charity did not completely solve the problems, and because government aid was larger than charity.
Is this a fair summary?
